A lift kit is a matched suspension upgrade for a 4x4, designed to improve ride height, control and load support as a complete system rather than as individual parts. Depending on the vehicle, a lift kit can include shocks, struts, springs, along with supporting components such as bushings and the hardware needed to fit everything correctly.
SuperPro Bushings are a leading name that is used throughout the world in a huge variety of motoring applications. So of course we would use nothing else and they are included in all our lift kits from Fulcrum Suspensions.

Looking for more information about 4x4 lift kits and suspension? Below we answer the most commonly asked questions.
What is the best brand of 4x4 suspension?
The best brand depends on the vehicle, the load it carries and how it is driven. For many Australian drivers, Formula 4x4 is one of the best choices because it balances comfort, control and heavy-duty capability. Fulcrum Suspensions also offers Bilstein, RAW, FOX, Koni, SuperPro and Whiteline for different needs.
What is the best 4x4 suspension?
The best 4x4 suspension is the setup that suits the vehicle, its load and how it is driven. For many drivers, Formula 4x4 is one of the best options because it balances comfort, control and heavy-duty capability. Many setups also use SuperPro components to improve durability and alignment stability.
What are the 4 types of suspension systems?
The four most common suspension types are leaf spring suspension, coil spring suspension, strut suspension and shock absorber-based suspension systems. In 4WD vehicles, leaf springs are often used for rear load support, while coil springs, shock absorbers and struts help manage ride quality and control.
How often should I replace my suspension?
There is no fixed replacement interval because suspension wear depends on road conditions, vehicle load and how the vehicle is used. If ride quality drops, steering feels less stable or the vehicle no longer sits correctly, it is a good time to inspect parts such as shock absorbers, coil springs, leaf springs and suspension bushes.
How many hours does it take to replace a suspension?
The time depends on the vehicle and the type of upgrade being installed. A basic suspension replacement can take a few hours, while a complete 4x4 lift kit with extra components can take longer. Fulcrum Suspensions can advise on installation time for the exact vehicle and setup.
How much does it cost for a new suspension?
The cost depends on the vehicle, brand and type of setup. As a general guide, lift kits usually cost around $1,500 to $3,000+, depending on the components included. The final price can also change if the vehicle needs extra parts or installation through Fulcrum Suspensions.
What is the difference between shocks and struts?
Shocks and struts both control suspension movement, but they are not the same part. Shock absorbers manage damping and reduce unwanted movement. Struts also support the suspension assembly and contribute to steering stability.
What are the different types of 4x4 shocks?
Different 4x4 shocks are designed for different uses. Some are built for comfort and touring, while others are designed for heavy-duty load carrying or stronger off-road performance. Fulcrum Suspensions offers shock absorbers from Formula 4x4, Bilstein, RAW, FOX and Koni.
How high can I legally lift my 4WD?
The legal lift height depends on the state or territory, the tyres fitted and the total height increase across the vehicle. Before fitting a lift kit, it is important to check the rules that apply to the vehicle and the intended setup.
Are lift kits legal in Australia?
Yes, lift kits can be legal in Australia, but legality depends on the total lift, the way the vehicle is modified and the rules in the state or territory where it is registered. It is always best to check the local requirements before fitting a lift kit.
What warranty do lift kits have from Fulcrum?
Lift kit warranty depends on the brand and the components included in the suspension upgrade.
SuperPro: Lifetime Warranty
Formula 4x4: 5 Year / Unlimited Kilometre Warranty
Bilstein: 3 Year / 60,000 Kilometre Warranty
RAW 4x4: 2 Year / 30,000 Kilometre Warranty
FOX: 1 Year / Limited Kilometre Warranty
All other lift kits: 12 Month / 20,000 Kilometre Warranty
What’s the point of a 2 inch lift?
A 2 inch lift is a practical upgrade for drivers who want more ground clearance, better tyre fitment and improved off-road capability while keeping the vehicle comfortable for daily driving and touring.
Is a 2 inch lift kit legal?
A 2 inch lift kit can be legal, but it still depends on the vehicle, the tyres fitted, the total lift and the rules in the state or territory where the vehicle is registered. It is best to check local requirements before installation.
Is a 3 inch lift legal in Australia?
A 3 inch lift may be legal in some cases, but it is more likely to require approval because it can push the vehicle beyond basic modification limits. Whether it is legal depends on the total lift, the vehicle and the state or territory rules.
Does a 3 inch lift make a difference?
Yes, a 3 inch lift can make a noticeable difference. It can provide more clearance, allow for larger tyres and improve off-road capability. It can also change handling and suspension geometry, which is why a 3 inch lift usually needs more careful setup than a smaller lift.
